This scenario is reminiscent of what happened a few years back when AOL released their whole corpus of search queries with associated user-ID hashes. Most of what was done with that data set amounted to amateur CSI work and general meanness. I don't recall any profound revelations or can't-miss business opportunities coming out of it. The value of raw data is overrated.

I'm talking about a continuously updated stream. I have started learning about complex event processing (CEP) and am wondering if you could do anything with that as a model tied to suggesting related links/sites.
